I want to be like Jesus

Appears in 89 hymnals Lyrics: 1 I want to be like Jesus, All gentle, pure, and mild; His seal upon my forehead, And owned as his dear child: My heart so weak and sinful, All changed by grace divine, And all my life to serve him, And ever call him mine. Chorus: I want to be like Jesus, The gentle, pure, and mild; To do and live like Jesus, And ever be his child. 2 I want to be like Jesus, To make each passing day, With deeds of love and mercy, Or cheer some lonely way; Speak gentle words of counsel, Avoid each secret sin, And to my precious Saviour, The lost ones seek to win. [Chorus] 3 I want to live like Jesus, Whose words with love were fraught; I want to find his favor, By him be truly taught; Oh, then, I'm sure that ever His hand will guide me on, Until the heavenly portals, And glory, shall be won. [Chorus] Used With Tune: [I want to be like Jesus]

It is finished

Take thy crown and sceptre, thou By all earth and heaven adored! Used With Tune: [It is finish'd, finish'd now]

Chorus: Only just across the river, Where the saints are passing over, Only just across the river, Over on the other side. 2 Only just across the river, Are the friends we love below, Clad and pure and spotless garments, That are whiter than the snow; They have brav'd cold Jordan's billows, And have pass'd thro' death's alarms, And are safe, forever safe Within the Saviour's loving arms. [Chorus] 3 Only just across the river, Where the hills of glory shine, There the pearly gates stand open Wide, that leads to joy divine; There the tree of life is blooming, And the living waters glide, Only just across the river, Over on the other side. [Chorus] 4 Only just across the river Are the robes of spotless white; Only just across the river Are the crowns of glory bright; And the saints and angels joining In the songs of one accord, Only just across the river, Sing the praises of the Lord. [Chorus] Used With Tune: OVER ON THE OTHER SIDE

Lattimore

Appears in 6 hymnals First Line: The chariot of mercy is speeding its way Lyrics: 1 The chariot of mercy is speeding its way Far, far o'er the shadowy gloom, And the lands that in death's dark obscurity lay Are bursting the bars of the tomb. I see where 'tis shedding its luminous ray, Dispersing the shadows of night, And the wondering nations are hailing the day, And rejoice in its glorious light, 2 Hallelujahs are sounding melodious, clear, Borne sweet from the isles of the sea, And the lands of the East send the echo afar, And the long-fetter'd pagan is free: And the Indian that roams thro' the green-prairied West Now raises his tear-moisten'd eye, As he welcomes with joy the glad tidings of rest, In a home far away in the sky. Used With Tune: [The chariot of mercy is speeding its way]
